ORLANDO, Florida (InvestigateTV) - When Michael Beacham's daughter, Mattie, was born at Orlando Health in December of 2022, he believed that many medical malpractice lawsuits were frivolous."I didn't understand it. You just hear what you're told and think, 'Oh, frivolous lawsuits. People are out just trying to sue everybody,'" Beacham said.

But his opinion changed once tragedy struck his own family.

Mattie was healthy after his wife, Allison, gave birth."I remember every moment of it, came on out, cried and happy little zesty, zesty little baby," said Allison, a local TV news anchor.
